Don't worry, they are redirecting the rover to take a closer look. Apparently it will take 2-3 months. They can pick it up for you then.

I know what it is , it’s just a bit of grease from the thermal pad on the sensor of the camera distorting the FOV
I presume the cameras are ZWO ??

Alas I never watch any episodes with William Hartnell as the Dr .. I started watching when John Pertwee was the Dr .. and finished with Tom Baker, I couldn't warm to Peter Davison. I guess the best Dr is the one that had drawn you into the series.
